[DeTomaso] Centerforce dual friction disk from Ford Racing

[Will Kooiman]

Webers.

It's a copy of the filters that used to be available from the vendors.
Since Webers aren't as popular as they once were (EFI taking over), the
Weber filters are hard to find.

There's a set on ebay right now, but they only show up about once a year.

The top should arrive in 3-4 weeks from emachine shop.

  Ooooooo... smooth, sexy, machined.... I'm drooling all over.

So what does it bolt to?  :)
